A pair of Blackbirds have decided to make a home in the ivy on the wall in my front garden. :blackbird: :love: :blackbird:
It is about 6 foot above the ground but I fear in the future it could be targeted by the Jackdaws which inhabit my locality. Time will tell but I give the chances of any hatchlings at being no better then 50/50.

Always nice to have a nest and see the birds going back and forth Jack.

I've got them too but they're not as busy as the Jackdaws.

I think there are now hatchlings. Mum and Dad have started visiting the nest frequently especially in the morning. :blackbird: :blackbird:
